A personal thankyou from me for all of the hard work each and every employee has contributed over the last 12 months, from the back office staff to the operational team to everyone who works at the various venues we cover; to say it’s been a busy year is an understatement. There’s some exiting growth plans in the pipeline for 2017 so the future is certainly bright for Phoenix Security to what will also be a very busy 2017. With more acquisitions on their way, watch this space for further updates. Have a safe and enjoyable Christmas and New Year as we all move into 2017 and all the best for the New Year to you and your loved ones. Neill Winch, Group Chief Executive.

CASH FOR KIDS! 4 million children live in poverty across the UK. For these families Christmas is a luxury
they just can’t afford. Here at Phoenix Security we are collecting clothes, toys,
accessories etc. for infants right up to 18 year olds! All things must be new and with
tags. Anything you can donate would be greatly appreciated so that these children can
enjoy Christmas and have one less thing to worry about this year.
CHRISTMAS! As I’m sure you are all aware Christmas
is coming, which is undoubtedly our
busiest period. So, please remember
that during this time no holidays are to
be taken.
Also, please be mindful of once a year
drinkers – we don’t want anyone losing
their licence.

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
‘’I would like to take this opportunity to highlight the effective measures that you and the
door team are currently implementing at the Floral Hall. Incidents of violence since control
of security changed to Phoenix Security have reduced dramatically, possibly due to a tighter
more process driven team who appear to communicate better with premise staff and
customers alike. ‘’ - Julian Griffin
‘’You all worked exceptionally hard to ensure
that the situation didn’t escalate and that fans
collected their tickets with minimal disruption
to our guests. ‘’ – Julian Griffin
As we know you all work really hard and excel at your jobs, here is
some feedback from some of our clients!
‘’I would once again like to thank you and your team for excellent levels of customer service
over our very busy year end period. At Hogmanay in Edinburgh, we can enjoy up to 175,000
party goers in the city seeing in the New Year, and with the eyes of the world upon us it is
important we put on a good show. ‘’ – Andrew Watson
This year was no exception, with record sales in my store at the West End as well as zero
reportable incidents it has to be recorded as a fine example of a well behaved well
managed event, your staff ,managed and coordinated by Julie were a credit to you.
‘’You and your team were great this evening,
not one guest had to wait for a room so a
massive well done. ‘’ - Kris Doyle
‘’With regard to New Year’s Eve we were really happy with the service provided and your
staff carried out all roles with ultimate professionalism. We were particularly impressed
with Michael the Supervisor and would hope to continue working with you in the near
future.’’ – Karen Makepeace
Supervisors Nicole and James are both very professional. We had an incident with one
of our staff members and they couldn't have been anymore help-full and caring. Every
time I have the event they are friendly and approachable. Great to see a venue with nice
staff and security staff. – Tiger Tiger Manchester
‘’Our previous security providers delivered poor standards, poor service levels and unreliable staff who didn’t turn up. Phoenix Security are totally different in that their staff are highly professional and totally reliable. From one to one contact including incident reporting and more area manager visits, we’ve found Phoenix Security to be an excellent company with extremely professional staff.’’ Kevin Walker, Area Manager, Novus Leisure Tiger Tiger
